Young People Planning Together
Young People Planning Together is an opportunity for students within the school community to have a voice about what they would like to happen in their futures.
In some instances it’s the first opportunity that young people have been given to decide for themselves what they want for their futures.
The Young People spend time together as a group where they identify some or all of the following:
- My gifts, strengths, capacities and interests
- How I like to spend my time
- The kind of a person I like to spend time with and support me
- My personal dreams and goals for my future
- What I have to think about to keep healthy and safe
- What other people like and admire about me
- What is most Important To me
- What works and what doesn’t work for me
These sessions are conducted using posters and then transposed into a Plan that the young people can then take with them to use within the school environment.
